Elliott List smashed home a late winner as League One strugglers Gillingham produced an FA Cup third round shock by dumping out Cardiff with a 1-0 win. Midfielder List buried his finish past Bluebirds goalkeeper Alex Smithies with nine minutes remaining at Priestfield to upset the Premier League visitors. With top-flight survival the priority, it looked like they would have to be content with an unwanted replay in south Wales before List emphatically intervened. City defender Morrison was then denied by an excellent save from Holy after stabbing towards goal following a Ralls corner as the one-way traffic continued. Cardiff then almost went ahead in fortuitous fashion when the ball ricocheted off Gills defender Zakuani and struck the upright following pressure from City substitute Josh Murphy.
